Sold some extra tickets for an 80? profit


Jan 6, 2017, 12:56 PM

Last year people paid hundreds less than us to see the game. The entire trip was a huge expense for us, but was absolutely worth it. This year was the opposite situation. We learned what factors are at play with ticket pricing and understood that demand would be higher, but there was still risk involved. We had enough faith in our boys to risk $300 at the beginning of the season on teamtix. We reserved two extras to sell as an offset to our costs. There's a risk/reward for every financial decision in life. The complaining, sob stories, guilt trips, and attitude of entitlement on this bored is pathetic.

I wonder if the fine upstanding capitalists that are making a few grand on these tickets are going to report and pay taxes on their "investments".

Guess the entitlement crowd wants their cut

One way or another? I wouldn't know, I'm a producer..

It is amazing to me how cheaply I was able to attend last years game. Round trip air $99, 2 night stay at Treasure Island, Vegas, $79 a night. Charter buss ride $50. Lower deck ticket $150. $460 x 4 for the family, or about $2,000. Can't sniff that this year.

LOL...

No judgment here, I think that kind of play is awesome! Bravo, and job well done!
(I wish I had thought of doing something like that)
